BatchLeads Vs Lead Sherpa

Member since 2020 · 7 posts · 3 votes

Hi Everyone,

I'm about to begin wholesaling and am figuring out what software I'm going to use for SMS campaigns. What are your thoughts on BatchLeads vs Lead Sherpa? Specifically pertaining to:

- which is cheaper overall (inclusive of everything: cost per sms, monthly subscription, cost for phone numbers, etc)
- deliverability/functionality
- Batchleads' prospect search quality vs having to use something like Propstream for Lead Sherpa (since prospect search isn't built in)
- Btachleads' skip tracing quality vs Leadsherpa

Generally speaking, would also love to hear—out of any softwares—what you recommend for the best (meaning highest quality for cheapest price):

- prospect search
- skip tracing
- SMS outreach

Know this is a packed question - feel free to answer as little or as much as you can. Thank you in advance.

Batchleads gets a lot of hype but it's customer service sucks and the system has too many bugs. If you're large REI Player, Zach Ginn, Pace Moby, or some other Big Dog you get great customer service. If You're not you can expect your operation to be down 1-4 or 5 days till they get their "Technical Support Specialist" to help you/solve the problem.

I've tried a lot of them:

My own Free99Free one for 7 yrs using a SamSung Phone & a GooglePlay app (can't use it cause carrier's will flag you down, shut off ur phone every other day)

REIReplay

SlyText

BatchLeads

Flipster - Just recently tried it out using their "7day trial period" and it SUCKED!!

but I'm come to find out LeadSherpa is the cadillac of SMS Mass Text Blasting. Not perfect but the best and I've been Mass Text Blasting for 9 yrs now.

So my current marketing system package is:

LeadSherpa

CallTools

SlyBroadcast

Do I pay more then an All in One system like Batch of Flipster? Absolutely.

But my systems don't go down every 3 - 4 days and my operations won't shut down cause Customer Service/Tech Support takes effing forever to respond to my support request.

Prospect Search - Propstream or Propelio. If you're just starting off Propelio is good cause it's not as overwhelming as Propstream.
Skip - Propstream or Propelio
SMS - The best LeadSherpa. The cheapest but up to 6 months ago was not operational is SlyText. Check and see if they're back up. They're a part of the Slybroadcast company. Slytext is not perfect,has some bugs, but it's actually very good and very cheap.

I think Batchleads is decent but I think Propstream is better for data. batch was annoying to figure out in the beginning like stuff inside the same software wasn’t integrated and you had to download. But a dummy like me sorted it out and I’ve got some decent leads from it.

Hey @Daniel Newman, you can check out our software over at Invelo for free on the Starter plan. You'll be able to pull prospect lists, house your records, skip trace and market to prospects. We don't have calling and texting in-app yet, but are currently building a direct API connection with CallRail and CallTools. We really like how they've set up their products. When we release the integrated feature, you'll be able to click to call and text directly from Invelo if you already have a CallRail or CallTools account.

Let me know if you have any questions about Invelo. I'd be happy to answer them for you here, or I can set up a call with my Customer Success team to walk you through the platform.

Congrats on getting into wholesaling!

I would personally not recommend BatchLeads. The company gets more and more greedier over the time. They have raised their prices double over a few months period we have been using their platform. Since you have skip-traced lists with them you pretty much locked. If you cancel your account all your data will be lost. Also there is strict no refund policy, even from your wallet. You will have to go and leave any unused amount you got in your BatchLeads Wallet. I like the product but their policies drowning them down in competition. I hope they will see this feedback one day.
